I bought a pouch of this stuff a few days ago as I wanted a cheaper alternative to the higher end blends I was smoking. I actually wanted Captain Black but couldn't find it (odd I know...)
First off this tobacco smelled like some filthy alcoholic you'd run into behind the Greyhound station. It smelled of cheap booze. It is long ribbon cut and not what I am used to in a pipe tobacco. I smoked the first bowl in a long stemmed pipe I bought in Poland that I always use for new tobaccos. First impression? Where is the taste? Nothing. It did have a somewhat pleasant natural tobacco after taste, but on the inhale, I got nothing. Next I noticed it make my mouth and in particular, my palate feel like a mixture of burning and needles and pins. AS I got down through the bowl, I noticed very slight traces of grape and rum (?) although nowhere near the flavour an Old Port cigar or cigarillo has. When I got to 3/4 of the bowl, my head was spinning and my stomach was rolling. I'm used to smoking a pipe and I also smoke hookah with tobacco shisha but this stuff made me feel like a first time 13 year old cigarette smoker. I tried a few more bowls of this crap until I decided it would be best to just give it away.
Don't' waste your money on this shit. It is worse than Borkums Cherry. At least I could smoke that crap.

Firts of all I want to thank Davie Jones to write Montréal with the accent on the ''e''. As You all know, Montréal was found as a french town and is still a town in a majority of french speaking people.
This done I want to warn everybody that would fall in the trap of buying this awfull tobacco. I bought a pouch something like more than two years ago and it is still waiting (and will for long) in my storage.
As long as my opinion worth something I would say thats this one is too much aromatized and much more than that is aromatized with an awful and lethal flavour of cheap rhum from the alambic of and old illegal bootlegger from the swamp...
Well, I don't like it, but maybe you will and it is alright like this!
Salut bien!

I am new to pipe smoking. However, I can say that I really hated this tobacco. It smells bad in the pouch, and the taste was awful. I dumped it in the garbage. Not recommended.
